Wisdom teeth pulled.. numbness & pain?

i just got my 4 wisdom teeth pulled on friday,


im healing just fine %26amp; most of the pain is gone. but one side of my lower lip/gums is still numb %26amp; my front bottom teeth [NOT my wisdom teeth] are hurting ! and as the numbness goes away the pain goes away. im not worried about the numbness going away or whatever, im just getting frustrated that my front little teeth are hurting... is that normal? im just pretty confused lol. i hope that made sense.. :]

Wisdom teeth pulled.. numbness %26amp; pain?
if you have the numbness still, the dentist must have damaged your nerve, it will take time to recover. Need to take a lot of Vit B to make the nerve regenerate.
Reply:yeah it%26#039;s normal...take something to ease the pain. If it doesn%26#039;t go away in another few days or so I would talk to your dentist.
Reply:I had the same pain, it%26#039;s basically from them putting so much pressuring and pulling that actually pull against your other teeth. It%26#039;s not an easy thing to do without pushing surrounding teeth.
Reply:Don%26#039;t worry about it. You just had tissue severed. The feeling will come back in a few weeks at the most. Once in awhile you have permanent numbness, but that is a rarity. Let yourself heal from the trauma and all will be well.
Reply:After there%26#039;s a change in the mouth, your body tries to adapt to it. I recently got a cavity filling myself, and it%26#039;s still a little painful. If you have a tooth pulled, your mouth should go back to normal in about 3 weeks.
Reply:Yes, this is totally normal! I just had two wisdoms removed on February 8th and have experienced the same pain! I called the oral surgeon and he said this is pretty normal.





Just remember to rinse with salt water and you should still be able to brush the front teeth. It will subside soon! Just remember that this is a lot of trauma to the mouth and your remaining teeth are adjusting to the new space and therefore your other, seemingly unrelated teeth may ache from time to time!





No worries!
Reply:Yeah my son (22) went through the same thing last month,also had 4 pulled.The first week was hell,excruciating pain,told he had dry socket.He was taking pain killers but they didn%26#039;t really do much.Even when he went back upstate to where he attends college,it was still bothering him going into the second week.But it did finally get back to normal,just took time.











Everyone reacts differently to this procedure,some get back to normal with little pain within a couple of days,others very painful and longer before it heals.He also complained that other teeth were hurting too....hang in there it will get back to normal!!!!
